A Judges's Nightmare

465 Words Prompt Words: A Pleading File, Judge's Gavel and a Hooker.

It was another day for Judge Harvel. Baliff Eric Jansen gave the command: "All rise!" as Judge Harvel made his way to the big judge's chair.

Judge Harvel signaled everyone could be seated as the people in the Court Room sat down. "What is our first case?"

The Baliff cleared his throat. "Haley Harvel is being charged with prositution. She was caught soliciting at a local nightclub."

Haley Harvel stood before the judge wearing a tight red mini skirt with a black tank top and spaghetti straps that left little to the imagination. Long black boots completed the outfit and a beautiful young woman with long black hair and baby blue eyes looked innocent except for the heavy make up and false eye lashes and botoxed lips that wore blood red lipstick. The woman looked like a cross between a hooker and a
a vampire.

Judge Harvel cleared his throat. "Miss Harvel this is the fourth time you have been
in my Court Room. "How do you plead?"

Haley smiled. "Not guilty, your Honor."

"Did you take money from a young man dressed like you are now?"

"Yes, your Honor. Jerome paid me back for the money I loaned him to pay his rent."

"Miss Harvel, the report also states you were talking to several men who were
being inapproriately affectionate towards you. You were talking dirty to these young
men."

"Judge Harvel, I was on my way to a Costume Party and these young men thought I was a Hooker!"

"I can see why! I have a pleadings file here on you. You have mooned a football game, changed your clothes while driving your vehicle and giving inapproriate signals to on duty policemen. Miss Harvel, you have been lucky to escape jail time but this time, you are going to spend the night in a jail cell. You need to change your MO!"

"Daddy, be fair. I have classes tomorrow. I am so close to getting my Fashion Designing Degree!"

"Young lady, don't call me Daddy in court! As for your Fashion Degree, the outfit you have on would be an incomplete! You are a disgrace to me as a daughter!
I hope a night in jail will teach you a lesson! You are worse then your mother! I love you but you have broken the law for the last time! "

"You divorced mother and yes, Daddy, I was hooking and turning tricks! You were never there for me!"

"Baliff, take her away!" Judge Harvel slammed his gavel down and his daughter was taken away from the Court Room.

"Alright, next case." sighed the judge.

"The court versus Noah Harvel. He has been charged with recruiting young women into prostitution."

Judge Harvel threw his gavel in the air. His son, too! Where did he go wrong as a father?
